Breathable Air Warning

This compressor/pump is not equipped
and should not be used "as is" to
supply breathing quality air. For any
application of air for human
consumption, the air
compressor/pump will need to be
fitted with suitable in-line safety and
alarm equipment. This additional
equipment is necessary to properly
filter and purify the air to meet
minimal specifications for Grade D
breathing as described in Compressed
Gas Association Commodity
Specification G 7.1 - 1966, OSHA 29 CFR
1910. 134, and/or Canadian Standards
Associations (CSA).
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
In the event the compressor is used
for the purpose of breathing air
application and proper in-line
safety and alarm equipment is not
simultaneously used, existing
warranties shall be voided, and
Campbell Hausfeld disclaims any
liability whatsoever for any loss,
personal injury or damage.
Do not run
unattended. Leaving
compressor in AUTO position may allow it
to turn on inadvertently. To prevent this
and possible damage from power surge,
turn to OFF position after each use.
Since the air compressor and other
components (filters, lubricators, hoses,
etc.) used, make up a high pressure
pumping system, the following safety
precautions must be observed at all times:
1. Read all manuals
included with this
product carefully. Be
thoroughly familiar
with the controls and
the proper use of the equipment.
